Understanding the physical and chemical properties of keratin films
Hair is seen as a waste material to be discarded after a haircut. However this waste material can be reused as a biomaterial for greater applications such as wound dressing applications or skin reconstruction. Hair is made up predominantly of keratin, which is a biopolymer that is biocompatible and...
